Q&A: Carbine's high-caliber talent

NCsoft officially unveiled the latest development house in its growing stable of massively multiplayer online game makers, Carbine Studios. The studio contains several industry veterans, including Kevin Beardslee, a former lead developer on World of Warcraft, Jeremy Gaffney, City of Heroes executive producer and cofounder of Turbine Inc., and Tim Cain, lead designer of the original Fallout and cofounder of Troika Games.

Initially founded in 2005 by 10 ex-Blizzard developers, Carbine is currently at work on an as-yet-unannounced project. Though details on the project are still under wraps, Carbine hopes to bring a new perspective to the MMOG market by exploring genres beyond strictly fantasy or sci-fi.

GameSpot spoke with Carbine Studios' Kevin Beardslee, Jeremy Gaffney, and Eric DeMilt on the direction of their first project, how they intend to grow and cannibalize the MMOG market, and why Tim Cain deserves a raise.

Fallout 4's 'next gen' update is over 14 gigs, breaks modded saves, & doesn't change much at all

We were expecting problems with mod support, but there are a lot of other issues.

Wow what the actual hell 🤣🤣🤣

This is why you get the GOG version on gog you can select the version of the game to download.

On pc fallout 4 fallout new vegas and skyrim are all broken on steam because they all got the same "next gen" update.

Skyrim dec 2023

Can not find new vegas but anyone that modded it knows the script extender there was also broken

Not accidental, they want modders to stop modding their older games to force them to mod Shitfield.

There doing the same on starfield with a mods store and blocking mods

There goal is like blizzard and what they did with fallout 76 you make mods they can sell and you become a slave.

On skyrim they have "trusted" mod devs now basically a badge that lets your mod on the store you get a crumb of the sale when someone buys it.

lol to the disagrees, the last Skyrim update broke mods too. They've been trying to kill mods to monetize them in creation club for years, it's not a stretch that they purposely put out patches just to break free mods.

Over 14 GBs and doesn't change much at all? What? Taking up that much drive space for a pathetic 'remastering' is shameful.

Par for Bethesda.
